Super Smash Bros. Ultimate features every single fighter from the series, but not all of the characters are going to be quite how you remember them.
Aside from the obvious balancing changes and new moves, we're noticing that some fighters have received cosmetic changes, too - and not all of these alterations have gone down that well.
Take Metal Gear Solid's Solid Snake, for example; the rear-end of this famous super-soldier was the stuff of legend in Smash Bros. Brawl, but footage of Ultimate suggests that he's been forgetting to do his squats lately - much to the chagrin of his voice actor, David Hayter:
Could Hayter's complaint fix this injustice? Ultimate isn't out until the end of the year, so Snake certainly has time to beef up that posterior. Fingers crossed, eh?

A proper spy would've had eyes on his rear at all times.
You've got to be squidding me....
Here comes a Nintendo direct with a 30 minute explanation on how they improved Snake's model in Smash Bros Ultimate.
Butt? Butt?! Buuuuuuuuuuuuuutt!!!!!!
If you hit snakes butt it cracks
Squats don't train glutes very well at all.
Damn shame to see Snake's butt nerfed.
wt ffffffff
Buff the Butt
#FixSnakesButt
If it improves his hitbox to make him smaller, then this makes him all the better!
Now he's more snake, snakes normally don't have butts anyways
I would have thought it would have improved his Stealth.
Snakes Arse is not the only thing that's flatter... #zerosuitsamus #boobgate
Omg no .. not Snakes AAA Butt .. Snake? Snake? Snaaaaaaaaaaakkkeeeee
whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy??
Hayter's gonna hate 😉 Nah but that is a big change. Hopefully they change it back to the way it was, lol
Ya hear Nintendo? Fluff that Snake's butt post-haste!
....I wish Twin Snakes would be re-released on Switch.
I trust Nintendo to release a stability update for Solid Snake.
@GregTheFoxOwens Okay, first people complain that her boobs were made bigger in SSB4, now they're complaining that they were made smaller. Make up your minds!
It just looks weird. His upper legs are so muscular, and then his booty isn't at all. It looks like a plate.
Snake has obviously worked hard to make himself sleeker, so that he is better able to fit into cardboard boxes. #doesmybumlookbiginthiscardboardbox
@Saego
Well, now, instead of having his foes handing his ass to him on a plate, he can now, er, serve his foes appertizers on his, er, plate shaped ass?
@KayFiOS I demand a consistent C cup!
This is worse than the Samus thing. Her breast size can be anything, it's not like she's not wearing power armour usually.
But Snake is always wearing this skintight bodysuit and his giant thighs look weird when ending in flat buttocks. I'm sure there's real people looking like that, but video game characters are usually idealized.
Not to mention main character's backside has always been important in video game design as that's the side the player usually sees the most of in action games.
@GregTheFoxOwens Or just make it consistent. Consistency is good.
I remember when Lara Croft's continual "growth" was ridiculed by everyone, and that was before the whole "sexism in video games" shaming trend
... That flat model looks so weird with the massive bulging thighs attached to a plank.

Why does the brawl textures look better !!
@Abes3 because brawl had very realistic textures. Like the denim on mario. Smash 4 and ultimate have a more clean and cartoony look.
@NickOfTime90 Bayo would like to have a word with you.
@SmaggTheSmug ah yes the 90's... Lara was a victim of what a call sequel inflation, where EVERYTHING must be bigger than before, until the balloons pop and a reboot is in order and now she's a respectable B Cup
Could someone with such muscular legs have a back-side that small?!
Forget sensationalism here, let’s talk about a little reality - I know it’s a video game, but this just looks off!
Please fix the character model so the muscle tone is at least believable. Those glutes should be way more toned!
@NintendoFan4Lyf yeah it’s the same with overwatch and fortnite, it just looks straight up weird and abnormal. It should be fixed, it’s nothing to do with sexualisation as lots of people are trying to spin it in other places.
